Adventure Race race 4:20:00 [5] 30 km (8:40 / km)
did the adventure race with steve and daniel from newcastle.
did fair good. very very annoyed with the control being put in the wrong spot. you'd think with the amount of money being paid and the number of teams entered theyd be able to get it right. i really dont consider it to be 'the nature of the sport' as the guy commentating put it when he was told. we were actually 4th at that stage and lost like 10mins on some other teams! dropping us back to about 12th overall i think.
was 30km all up. prob had about 15-20km ride, 4km paddle and the rest run.
the mud made the ride very tough :P and maybe a little more navigation or something would have played to our advantage a bit more but still a very solid effort!!!!
well done guys. cheers.

Running warm up/down (Hand Weights & Drill) 25:00 [3]
a little warm down witht he squad in cluding drills, the ladder and some running with hand weights.

very happy. was screwed on the last too coz we did those after a map memory activity. and especially after an up hill finish!!! 5 was real good though. should have used the creek crossing on 4 aswel. sure saved time.
Bush Orienteering (Map Memory) 40:00 [3]*** 3 km (13:20 / km)
shoes: VJ Falcons
A few short map memory legs. we had a bit of a dispute on whether to keep going on the 'purple' ones. which resulted in a huuuuuuuge rest halfway through :P oops.
Bush Orienteering (Mini Score Course) 12:00 [5]*** 2 km (6:00 / km)
spiked:9/9c shoes: VJ Falcons
just a short score course. but instead of punching we had to remember the letters and unjumble them at the end. i was set on it being 'orienteer' but turned out to be memorises i think. after we had a nice dispute over some spelling :P haha.
o and if you get a chance check out the footage of me going to control #4. and squad members who have already seen it....i suggest you watch it again :D

went round on a training excercise with boahdan and huon. went well. we all discussed what we did and then stuck to our plans.
have no idea how far it was. pretty sure i remember someone saying 5. o and dont know about the time for that matter either. 1 hr sounded good :P
